Dean Hamid

I'm Dean Hamid, of Dean Hamid Presents.
I'm somewhat of a old school type of guy. Been around for awhile, I mean, not in regards to ebooks, etc, but, writing. Different schools of thought in regard to the craft and all. I'm born and raised in Brooklyn; Williamsburg, Bushwick, and Bed-Stuy. I went to an all art and design high school in NYC. I studied in broadcasting, and I'm also military vet. I've been a husband, and I'm a father. All these things have shaped me into the man I am, and in all actual the books I write.
I made the decision to become a published author because I believed then as I believe now, that I can do what a guy like Stephen Spielberg does, or even a Dean Koonz, and write good stories like them. I corresponded with many authors back in the day, before the ebook phase and I believed then, that I could be just as successful.
I would like to do Mysteries, Suspense, and keep the Action-Thrillers in my life, however, I would definitely want to stay with Urban, not necessarily African-American, but Urban nonetheless.
I have no desire to tell of the initial hand to mouth of the street hustlers. I like to delve more into the what made it come about, and the whole thought and drive that pushes criminal behavior. The inward thoughts, and mind-set.
That's the realities of what I saw growing up. That's the story I want to tell.
